Summary
Justin teaches on communion as the family meal of the church, exploring five biblical names (breaking of bread, communion, Eucharist, love feast, Lord's Supper) to reveal its meanings: remembering Jesus' sacrificial death, communing with Christ and one another, giving thanks for God's provision, celebrating Jesus' victory, and renewing covenant commitment to him.
Highlights
Remembering calls to mind the past to reframe the present.
The ground is level at the foot of the cross.
To take the Lord's Supper in a worthy manner means that your heart is truly surrendered to God.
